Jaycee does the 96.7. It was designed for Super Street to fit within the stock heads stud pattern. I'm pretty sure the barrels have no fins and the case is bored for a "smooth bore 94" and the barrel does not go into the case like a normal barrel. It is located using 4 dowell pins. It's in my 1993 Jaycee catalog but not on their website.

The way Jack did it in my case was to make a minor counterbore that indexed the bottom of the barrels into the case and the case actually served as the lower portion of the cylinder. the index has to be perfect so the skirts will clear without issues ... imagine if it's say .003 off ... at 8000rpm!
That didn't happen, and everything worked great!
Tom Simon has that motor now.

Oh yeah 96.7mm is that new Grateful Dead station, right?
